Psilocybe eximia

Psilocybe eximia is a little-known mushroom from Java, Indonesia, described in 2006, that grows in muddy soil among ferns, grasses, moss and leaf litter. There are no measured records and nothing on cultivation, so these conditions are inferred from humid tropical Java and soil-dwelling Psilocybe. It contains psilocybin, which is a controlled substance in many countries; check local law before cultivating.
